Simon and Garfunkel's 40th Anniversary Of Bridge Over Troubled Water

Bridge Over Troubled Water

It's over 40 years (41 - to be exact) - since Simon and Garfunkel's Bridge Over Troubled Water single and album topped the charts around the world!

I always thought this was a particularly beautiful song as I was growing up, and still do, despite the fact that lots of people allegedly choose it for the record to be played at their funeral(!)

Anyhow, Sony music are releasing to coincide with the 40th anniversary (rather belatedly - but we'll let that pass) an excellent two CD set comprising the original album, a previously unreleased live album and a rare TV special featuring the duo.
